Overview

The video shows welders who have interrupted their strictly utilitarian work in order to perform a piece for welding machines composed by young Croatian composer Nenad Sinkauz. The video was shot in a shipyard in Mali Lošinj, Croatia, in the summer of 2014. It triggers associations with the idea of cooperation between artists and workers, which was once popularised by the communist party. This model was promoted in the 1960s not only within the former Eastern Bloc, but also in the UK by the Artist Placement Group (APG), among others.
